Abstract(s)

Once spawned and fertilized the oviparous fish eggs operate as closed systems; only respiratory gases, heat and negligible amounts of solutes and water are exchanged freely, as a result of an extremely low permeability of the egg surface membranes. Currently, the opportunities to exert a nutritional stimulus during a stage of high metabolic plasticity, such as fish embryogenesis, are restricted to maternal transfer and the onset of exogenous feeding.
